The California power grid can barely maintain the load that is on it now; imagine the brownouts with 30 million EVs added to that. Not to mention the elephant in the room that is battery disposal...

Multiply the pic below by 270 million electric cars and that's your future vistas with EV's:
You bring up a good point and this is a different issue all together. Making a change to alternative energy requires everyone to participate. But 700HP starting at 1 RPM -10,000 RPM is a lot of fun power. Don't think the lack of exhaust note would be an issue.

You can also get it in 300HP option. That would be plenty suitable for my '59
